use_date

Default: False
Range: True or False
Related parameters: use_datetime2
Applies to: SQL Server Client (on SQL Server 2008)

Use this parameter to make the define/redefine commands interpret the DIOPT_Clone_as_Date bit in the di_options column of the DMS_ITEMS table as a request to use a data type of date instead of smalldatetime. This eliminates the need to set the di_options bit DIOPT_Use_Date for every item that is to be mapped to a data type of date.
